T Rex Sticky Gyro Gel
Instructions:
?PU adhesive gel is a material that possess excellent vibration dampening characteristics, ideal for mounting gyroscopes, receivers, or other electronics in vibration prone areas. The gel can be re-used by cleaning off containment (such as dust) with water. Mild detergent can also be used to wash away oily residues. Once dried the gel will regain its adhesiveness. The PU adhesive gel is an ideal replacement for traditional gyro foam tape. Its excellent vibration dampening characteristic can minimize impact induced damages on electronics.
Specification:
?Material:PU
?Size:110x55x3mm
Accessories:
?PU adhesive gel x 1
?Hook & loop fastening tape x 2

Gaui Hurricane 550 EP Helicopter Combo 90% ARTF Basic Combo + Motor + ESC !!
The 30-size powerful EP helicopter from the creator of SHOGUN helicopters. Use 2 batteries from T-REX 450. Real winner!
Now, from the makers of the Zoom, Shogun and various other successful models, comes something much bigger the Hurricane EP 550 electric helicopter. With an overall length of just over 1m, a main rotor diameter of 1110 mm and fitted with 50cm blades the Hurricane is just a little smaller than a 30-sized helicopter and suitable for beginners and intermediate pilots alike. One small point for anyone new to the sport is that this helicopter uses eCCPM (Electronic Cyclic and Collective Pitch Mixing) so a suitable transmitter will be required although most have this facility these days. The model comes under the category of ARTF (almost ready to fly) although partially assembled might be more accurate since installing the radio gear on any model takes a good few hours.
Features:
The Lightest-weight medium-sized EP helicopter.
Flying weight 1950g.
The best power to weight ratio gives excellent 3D capability .
Lowest price for battery cost in its class. Use 2 of 3S batteries in series.
Multi-stage gear reduction system delivers high power and results in a streamline cabin and canopy.
Push-pull linkages on ECCPM system limits any play for sharp control response.
Plastic and fiberglass composite main frame made from Dupont aviation engineering plastic for light weight and outstanding durability
Precision CNC anodized aluminum swash plate.
Fully equipped ball bearings ( total 43 bearings)
New Seesaw head design with Bell-Hiller system.
CNC aluminum center hub
CNC aluminum swashplate
90% factory assembly.

Understanding AutorotationThe first step in learning about autorotation is to understand that rotor blades are rotary wings. We can all imagine an airplane flying without a motor (glider), but it's a bit more difficult to visualize a helicopter doing the same. By recognizing that each blade is a wing that acts like the wing of a glider, autorotation is more comprehensible. The blade element diagram can be used to understand the forces acting on the blade during an autorotation. |
![]() auto1 |
auotrotation1To keep the blades turning during normal flight induced drag must be overcome by engine power. During an autorotation, the power that turns the rotors comes from another source-potential energy (gravity), as the helicopter loses altitude. The rotor head will initially slow down, feeding on its own rotor inertia. Lowering collective will stop the decay. The increasing up flow of air through the rotor system reverses airflow. With |

auto4Auto Region Rotational speed combines with induced flow, shifting the relative wind below the rotor plane. Notice that the lift vector is tilted forward, providing a pro-autorotative force. This region is increased and shifted toward the blade tip at higher pitch settings, decreasing rotor rpm and slowing the sink rate. |
![]() auto05 |
auto6Prop Region Relatively high rotational speed at the outer portion of the rotor disk combines with induced flow, shifting the relative wind towards the horizontal. Notice the lift vector is tilted more vertical than forward, providing less pro-autorotative driving force. In this region, the profile drag is the largest and causes greater anti-autorotative force. This region is increased with lower pitch settings and higher rpms, thus reducing the auto region, resulting in a faster sink rate. |
![]() auot07 |
auto08Stall Region The stall region is at the blade root, where rotational flow is reduced to the point where lift is not generated and profile drag dominates. As pitch angle is increased, rotor rpms are reduced and the stall region increases across the blade, reducing the auto region and prop region. |

How to use Dampers to best effectHead dampening is one of those very important aspects of a helicopter that often gets downplayed or overlooked. Knowledge of dampening basics and its purpose in a model heli will enable any pilot to better modify, fly, and understand the machine. |

damper08Here is a real life example of a heli and its damper choices. The Hirobo Freya Evo helicopter has two types of dampers available from the manufacturer, the stock ones are a 60 durometer and they also offer a set of 3D ones that are rated at 80 durometer. For a heavy 3D pilot, the 80 durometer would be the best choice, while an FAI precision type pilot or beginner may want the 60 durometer units. |

dampers10O-ring upgrades. These dampers are usually of a harder durometer rating than what the manufacturer offers and they are the whole damper. They generally consist of two or more O-rings that the spindle rides inside the head block. Available in many durometer ratings that are suitable for all flight types. |

dampers12O-rings in a sleeve. Some manufacturers offer sets that have a number of smaller O-rings inside a metal sleeve that goes into the head block. These work much like the ones above. |

dampers14With so many options out there for dampers on most machines, there will be a set that will make your heli fly the way you want it to. As to which to choose, look at your flight style and what other pilots with the same heli are using, and that should be a great place to start. |

dampers162) Next, lube the spindle shaft with the same grease and slide it into the dampers. I like to put a piece of paper towel or cotton swab into the spindle at the end to keep any grease from getting in the bolt threads--I'd hate to have a spindle bolt free itself in flight--very ugly. The grease allows the spindle to move in the head block so it can center in flight. |

dampers183) Install the blade grips and it is ready to go. There are some dampers made with a special plastic that should not be lubricated, and as always, see the instructions first. |

dampers20Dampers need to be checked often for wear and damage. The main rotor takes some abuse, and the dampers carry the whole assembly! To check the dampers without removing anything, simply grab the blade grips and rock them in the head block. If there is significantly more movement than when the dampers were new, it may be time to replace them. The heli can also exhibit tracking and fluttering problems when dampers are worn out, so watch for those signs. As always, check them after a crash too. |
